RE: [PHP] Print array items only once

2001-05-09 Thread Nicolas Guilhot

You can try to modify your SQL query and add the DISTINCT statement !! It
will return each distinct row only once.

example SELECT DISTINCT cat_id, cat_name FROM categories

Objet : [PHP] Print array items only once


Hi all,

I am querying the categories field in my database to rurn the various
categories that can be clicked on.

Problem is, if I have 5 items in a category, my categories query lists the
category 5 times..

I am trying to work out how to say:

while($qry = mysql_fetch_array($res)){
print $res[category]; but only once for this results array.
}

Can you help with this?

Many thanks.

Sean.
